Ragupathi Raagava Rajaram
"Raghupati Raghava Raja Ram" (also called Ram Dhun) is a bhajan (devotional song) widely popularised by Mahatma Gandhi and set to tune by Vishnu Digambar Paluskar in Raga ''Mishra Gara''. History The precise origins of the song are not entirely clear. It is believed to have been either written by Tulsidas (or based on his work Ramcharitmanas) or based on a 17th-century sung-prayer by the Marathi saint-poet Ramdas. Anthony Parel writes in ''Gandhi's Philosophy and the Quest for Harmony'', There have been many versions of the Ramdhun, and the version that Mahatma Gandhi used had an "ecumenical flavour" to it.

The song was extensively used to project a secular and composite vision of Indian society — it was sung during the 1930 Salt ...
